    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am not satisfied with the answers that have been given by the Minister. First, we wanted to know the Government's plan with regard to the waiving of AFC loans granted to pastoralists. The AFC is a Government parastatal and the Minister has not stated whether the Government will look into this matter and ensure that those people who lost their animals will get a waiver on the loans that were granted to them. He did not come out clearly on that issue and yet it was a very specific question. Secondly, his statement that only 25 per cent of livestock died in Kajiado District is untrue. The truth of the matter is that over 65 per cent of livestock in Kajiado District died during the drought. The level of poverty in Kajiado District is very high. Could the Minister be specific with regard to the Government extending a waiver on loans that were granted to pastoralists just like what it did with the loans granted to coffee farmers in 2004? What is the Minister planning to do with regard to the AFC loans that were granted to the livestock farmers?"
